One vs. One vs. One

Description
•Player ‘C’ starts on the end line and dribbles into zone 1, trying to get past defender ‘A’.
•If ‘A’ steals the ball, ‘A’ tries to dribble past ‘C’, and over the end line.
•If ‘C’ manages to get by ‘A’, ‘C’ continues through zone 2 and tries to beat ‘B’ over the end line.
•If ‘B’ steals it, he takes on player ‘A’ who has been waiting in zone 1.
Variations:
•Allow defender ‘A’ to chase ‘C’ into zone 2 if beaten. ‘C’ must then hold ‘A’ off while at the same time moving towards taking on ‘B’. This also makes ‘C’ not give up once beaten, teaching them to recover ‘goal-side’.
